Hey guys thanks for looking at my thread,
I'm converting a trailer to be a sleeping area for travelling around and am thinking about heating options. Can you let me know if you think this idea would cause mechanical issues?
To use a liquid to liquid heat exchanger under the bonnet. The coolant would run through the exchanger and a separate circuit of water would be ran through the other side of the exchanger using a small 12v pump in the trailer. The heated water would run through the under floor heating pipes of the trailer.
This is the type of heat exchanger I'm thinking of using:
